May 1984 saw an informal get-together of five X1/9's at the Castle Combe racing circuit in Wiltshire, where the Alfa Romeo Owners Club were holding a track day. From this first meeting, the X1/9 Owners Club was born and now has a thriving membership the world over. The Club exists to bring together X1/9 enthusiasts, to share experiences and to promote understanding and enjoyment of X1/9 motoring.
